Hopivötskwani – The Way of Becoming the Model Person in Hopi Tradition

Maria Głowacka

Résumé

This article attempts to present the Hopi model person in the light of the Hopi language and analyze the significance of the concept of unangwa in Hopi ethics. The Hopi model person is understood here as an assemble of selected, partly empirical components of a human being on one hand and ethical ideals postulated and constructed by Hopi culture on the other hand with the emphasis on the latter. By applying native terms the author of this article attempts to show the importance of careful linguistic translations for intercultural understanding.
